Documenting the life and times of a remarkable figure whose life touched a wide circle in England and Ireland, it was notable for having many of Bax's friends and contemporaries as sources, most of whom have since died. It also informed the remarkable revival of Bax's music and reputation which has taken place over the last twenty years.\u003cbr\u003e Now completely revised in the light of much new material including the huge archive of the pianist Harriet Cohen, Bax's mistress, which has only just become available for research, it is a notable portrait of a unique musical milieu. Bax's extensive musical output is now comprehensively recorded and widely known and here all the music is discussed from first hand acquaintance with all the revivals and recordings. This is the essential handbook to Bax and his period. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e LEWIS FOREMAN is a freelance author and advisor to record companies.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Lewis Foreman\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1843832097\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781843832096\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Boydell Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/25\/2007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 616\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.44lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.45h x 6.51w x 2.02d","brand":"Lewis Foreman","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43984385802495,"sku":"9781843832096","price":65.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_2ccbf849-1f4c-4e4e-ae7c-00cabb7c59fe.jpg?v=1683272011","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/bax-lewis-foreman-9781843832096","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
